Enjoying Ramadhan.. Enjoying the sun(set)-light.. Enjoying our Faith..



Fashioning Faith: Waiting for Iftar

Saturday afternoon, August 20th, 2011, at Dixie - Easy Dining Cafe... Felt the sun(set)light warmed my face and have a really good time. Eventhough the sunlight was a bit garish, honestly, I enjoyed it. The light was not as hot as it felt during the mid-day and the breeze was a bit cold for me, so the sunlight really can warm me up.. :)

Here we are, on the last few days of Ramadhan. Alhamdulillah.. so far, this year's Ramadhan's Fasting has been so good and easy for me.. (even, I enjoyed it.. because I didn't have to be bothered about "the activities of eating".. ^_^, so I could focus on other activities).

One thing that I love during Ramadhan is the time in the afternoon while we were waiting for 'iftar' (breaking our fast). It's usually filled out with many 'positive' activities we did with other Muslims/Muslimahs.

On August 20th afternoon, my Hijabers Community's friends held a mini fashion show, bazaar, also hijab and make-up tutorial, in coordination with Dixie - Easy Dining Cafe, Wardah - beauty cosmetic, and Honda - pitstop Ramadhan.

I had a really good time and made some new friends with other Muslimahs who also attended this event. We were entertained by a live music by two beautiful sisters with beautiful voices, and the event was spiced up with gifted-quizzes from sponsors.

The live music:
See?.. The sunlight (which fell on the face of the singer) was so bright..

And now it's time for my favorite pictures... Style Snap Photos on some sisters' looks:

I love their style.


A unique hijab-wrap, harem pants, a tubular shawl as a vest, fur-ed handbag, and a pair of yellow mustard wedge-sandals. What did you think of her style?
Fun Red!  :)

Love the pretty color peach/coral hue of them :)

Okay, Lovelies.. time is ticking.. it's just a few days left before Eid..

I apologize for any mistakes I possibly did to you, and I pray we are all make the most of Ibadah in this Holy Month of Ramadhan.

Have a wonderful Eidul Fitri! :)

Rania

Maxi Dress Moment



Hijabers Community Yogyakarta's Iftar, August 10th, 2011


HCY: "Assalamu'alaikum wr wb, Ukhti.. The dress code for this evening's iftar is Maxi dress." (mobile short message).
Me: *thinking* "Wow this is a chance for me to wear maxi dress.." (I've almost never wore maxi dress for my daily outfit.. ^_^.. So, this message made me feel very excited!).

Here are some style shoots from that event:

HCY Sunday Fun, July 24th, 2011

Sunday Style

Last Hijabers Community Yogyakarta (HCY)'s Sunday Fun (July 24th, 2011) was great. We had 'tausiyah Ramadhan' by Ustadz Edi and an interesting sharing about Hijab and Fashion; Also, a Fashion Garage Sale on Rahmadinna Boutique's yard.

The 'tausiyah' talked about what should we do to welcome the Holy Month of Ramadhan (topic: "Marhaban yaa Ramadhan") and Q.S. Maryam: 16 - 36 (about Maryam a.s. who was ordered to 'shaum' / fasting < in this case, not talking to anyone > just after she gave birth of Prophet Isa a.s. And then Baby Isa a.s. himself spoke out to explain about who He is). 

After the 'tausiyah', a special guest from University of Colorado, Carla Jones, an Assistant Professor of Anthropology, raised up some questions to the forum for sharing and being discussed regarding to her research on women, hijab, and fashion.



At the end of Sunday Fun event.. is time for photoshoots! :)


In the events like this, usually we can see various creative looks of hijab worn by Muslimahs.

My favorite look in the picture above is the look of one sister at the corner of bottom right. Her hijab was exceeded to her hip. It looks like an 'all in one' headscarf and vest. She also accessorized it with a loose thin belt at the hip... looks chic and unique.

And also this sister. With just a simple little headband, her hijab style looked different.

Love these hijab wraps:

See you on the next Sunday Style!

Please welcome.. Hijabers Community Yogyakarta!

Sunday Fun with Hijabers Community Yogyakarta (HCY), July 10th, 2011.


This is the first time I met and attended an event held by Hijabers Community Yogyakarta (HCY). HCY is a community which in it, all Muslim women (especially who live in Yogyakarta-Indonesia and its surroundings area) can meet up, sharing, and do positive activities as a way to build a strong and good relationship between Muslimah ('silaturahmi') and as a place to improve ourself to be a better Muslimah.

Every month HCY held twice Sunday Fun's event as a routine meeting. It's on the first and the third Sunday of the month.

Last week HCY's Sunday Fun held a seminar about women's reproduction health (topic: cervical cancer), and a muslimah fashion bazaar. Sounds really fun, right? 


Getting ready for the bazaar.

The Seminar. Speaker: Ibu Sri Panuntun, a lecture and also a nurse-midwife.

Yes, I have a great fun attending this routine meeting with Yogyakarta's hijabers (hijaber/hijabi = a call for a Muslim woman who wear hijab). 
I got new knowledges, new friends, a new hijab-style (one pretty sister kindly share to me on how she wrapped her hijab), and also.. a new beautiful purple-pink shawl I bought from the bazaar :) 
Thank you for this fun meet-up, Girls!

And here are some of style shots of the girls who attended this event:




Note: the 'yellow-mustard' above is a maxi dress with a hood. Same like the hoodie t-shirt, the hood is functioned as a shawl/hijab, too. Yellow-mustard.. matched with the colour black, looks awesome.


Cute look
